Agent Receipts

A TypeScript project exploring token receipts for agent workflows — making the cost and footprint of autonomous work easier to inspect.

Agent observabilityToken accountingTypeScript

Problem

Agent workflows can feel like a black box when their usage, cost, and execution footprint are invisible.

Approach

Built a focused TypeScript project around the idea of receipts: legible artifacts that expose what an agent consumed while doing work.

Value

Gives teams a clearer mental model for agent usage and a foundation for more accountable AI systems.

Snapshot
